Which gun to buy?

Ok, I know that Henry will be releasing a 45-70 next year.
Marlin has a few of them now.


I really love the 45-70, I own a NEF one and love it!


I bought my oldest son a Henry 22 for xmas last year.
Let me tell you it is a smooth, sweet shooting piece!


SO....here is my dilema.....


Which one should I buy, the Marlin 1895 or the Henry?
The only thing I'm not sold on for the Henry is the way you load it. I really like the way the marlin loads.
But I love the fact that a Henry is 100% american made.


Does anyone have any opinions or insights to help me decide?
I'm also going to post this in the marlin forums as well.


Thanks for your input!

Whom ever produces a strong .45-70 levergun and has the BAxxs to not put a safety button or lever or extra bs on the gun will get my money. All others will stay on the shelf.
